Was this one of the reasons aespa stopped accepting gifts?

Even if it's not THE reason, it's at least A good reason to put an end to this practice.

Wait, I'm sorry, I don't get what happened?

Dang. Hope YG will follow. While it’s nice for the idols to use the fans’ gift, it just doesn’t make sense ti continue giving it to them when they are already successful. I know fans are happy whenever they see the gifts being used.

After someone put wood glue in orange juice I dont blame any idol for not accepting gifts anymore

I don't think it's the main reason ( they probably receive too many gift, period ), but daaaamn.

User gathered fan funds to gift an massive item to them and ran with the money

Quote from Serendipity2000

Usually fan gallery's will collect funds to buy gifts for idols. So this one took a hiatus without any explanation during/after the donations ig. I'm not too sure either. As long as the money is sent back its all good ig. They put up a statement the second link regarding the transfer and stuff.

Thank you!

It looks like it's a risk people take before sending their money to someone they don't know, doesn't change the fact that disappearing was bad and seems like a normal reason, they should send the money back, definitely

So the shady f* scammed fans
